My antivirus is detecting this as malware. Anyone else?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
No, I don't remember that it did anyways.

downloading from here http://www.mediafire.com/download/9v3ucabm9htos1b/Kindle+Unbrick+UtilityV1.1.zip

and clicking the green 27.6 MB button and not an advertisement?

Clicking on an advertisement can take you down a dark and scary road.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
I use Avira on my Windows machines and Avast on Android devices. Avira does not like the root utility in KFU, and I assume that it triggers the detection for that reason. Neither Avast nor AVG detected it that way. Since I know what the software is, I have excluded it from the scan. ;)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Yeah mine thinks it's malware too. i came to this thread to see if anyone else had this problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
KFU includes a rooting tool, which by its very nature uses an exploit.

I have been using this utility trying to get the KF to unbrick and go back to stock.

This utility will not find the KF.

So this is what happened.

I bought a new tablet and was going to return this to stock to sell.

So I found a thread here on loading a stock update.zip and flashing it in TWRP. That won't work. I keep getting the attached error.

I have even tried a different update zip from Amazon that was recommended.

So then I found this utility.

But my pc will not see the KF. "Error Device Not Found" is what I keep getting. I have loaded the KF drivers, etc. I am able to mount the SDCARD when in TWRP and transfer files onto the KF.

But ADB is not seeing it. I have also loaded the standard adb drivers.

This pc used to connect fine when I was on WIN 7. I have a fresh install of win 8.1 and have loaded the win8.1 drivers from here at XDA. The problem is with adb I think. Like I said I can go into TWRP and mount the sdcard and transfer to it.

Any idea where to go on this?

Oh, if I let it boot without going to TWRP, it hangs at the KFU screen with "booting..." at the bottom of the screen.

Since I can mount the sdcard I know it is not FUBAR but I don't know which direction to go.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
you can't install stock update.zip with that TWRP, you need 2.2.2.1 use my zip-otter-twrp-2.2.2.1-blaze.zip

Windows 8.1 does not like kindle drivers see How to disable driver signature enforcement - Windows 8.1 & 8and use drivers from here [HOW-TO] Amazon Kindle Fire Signed Driver for WinXP/Vista/7/8/8.1

If driver do not install correctly kindle may boot to Fastboot, you will need a different pc to send normal boot code to kindle

or an Non-Windows option like SoupKit
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 85gallon:
Holy cow. Thanks.

My first thoughts were to flash the old version from the current version. But I thought I remember somewhere that you can't flash recovery from recovery. That is what I get for thinking when I am not used to it.

Any ways, thanks for your help. Downgraded TWRP from TWRP, flashed the update.zip, and I am cooking with gas.

It appears to be booting stock now.
[Nexus S General] Auxilium:
I'm receiving a white Nexus S in a couple of days running Bugless Beast (I believe its running the latest nightly). I'm just wondering if I can get some feedback on the ROM from the people who use it.

From a little of what I've read it seems to be a very well known ROM and developer. I've never had a "Pure" Google phone so I'm a little excited to see what it can do and so forth.

I know there's a thread about his announcement but I really don't feel like reading through 49 pages.

Thanks.

[Nexus S General] tehgeekguy:
It's very close to a stock Android experience, and it's fast. You don't get a lot of the extra features like you do with other ROMs like CyanogenMod or Modaco's (to name a couple), but it's really nice on performance.

Also, if you don't like it, you can always flash a different ROM.
[Nexus S General] Auxilium:
I heard the ICS update has had mixed feelings about battery life, some say its better some say its worse, hows this ROM on battery usage?

Sent via Atrix 4G, running Dorian's RedPill (CM7) Hybrid.
[Nexus S General] baolongn:
battery life will definitely vary between handsets. With my experiences its all luck. Some roms I would get decent battery life, other roms, not so much. This is coming from a person who tried every ics rom other there.

Currently on pixel.
[Nexus S General] _yaz_:
i followed pete all the way up with my crespo and i can say his gingerbread roms are very good. they run smooth and stable even the instable nightlies. maybe the consumption should be lower but when i changed kernel(s)/rom(s) i always experienced instability or higher consumption. so my advice is to keep a "clean" pete rom. it's a good compromize.

regarding his ics roms ... i'm not not completely convinced ;) e.g. the kernel is far from the best. however, it's just the beginning. i hope it ending up as the GB series.
[Nexus S General] Auxilium:
Is there a main recovery for the Nexus S? Or does everyone just use Koushs CWM (ROM Manager)?

[Nexus S General] DarkhShadow:
There's only two I have really seen, CWM and TWRP both are similar but TWRP has a few features cwm does not have.

1)TWRP is touch enabled

2)TWRP lets you choose which partitions to backup

Well that's all I know atm xD

[Nexus S General] syntax_gosong:
I'm now using the latest 5 Jan BuglessBeast + Eugene 3.1.6 ICUP kernel,

cpu governor is smartassv2 and the result is an awesomeness. Really fast and smooth.

It's a close-to-stock vanilla rom. No visual UI mods but system enhancement and

optimization. Pete is a really good and well known developer.

It's also less power consume. The battery now is 66%, 12 hours usage.

I did some phone calls & a lot messages through SMS, MiTalk and WhatsApp.

A suggestion : you must try it yourself :)
[Nexus S General] Auxilium:
TWRP has a recovery for the Atrix as well but it's still rather new, not many people have used it.

That's pretty good battery life considering you made voice calls and a lot of texts. I'll have to try that setup.

Thanks for the info.

[Nexus S General] heinst:
I see your on the Atrix now. I had the Atrix for about 1 week. I couldn't stand it. The UI is nothing compared to that of the pure Google phone. The motoblur UI made the atrix seem laggy over the nexus s. I've been using the nexus s ever since and never regretted it. Still have my Atrix in my drawer.

As for the bugless beast. I'm using it now and it's great. No force closes of apps or anything. Theres one for ics and GB out there. I would reccomed Eugene's speedy kernel 3 for battery life. If you need help with BFS and CFS and which you should pick just let me know and I'll help. Welcome to the nexus family. You'll love it. :D
[Nexus S General] Auxilium:
Thanks alot! Might need to take you up on that once I get the Nexus. I've heard from quite a few people recommending Eugenes speedy kernel, ill have to see what kernel its using already and go from there.

I agree that the motoblur on. The Atrix was pretty bad, but with custom roms like Darkside and CM7 based roms it makes the phone so much better. Should try it sometime.

Can we use usb port to print?
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
I dont think there is any printer manufacturer that has this ability..

however we just had to replace our printer.. I bought a brother wired wireless or net print .. the app is on the android marker and does work very well.. You can also use google cloud print .

google cloud print will work with almost any printer..

to use install google chrome browser on the computer connected to your printer

install google cloud print add on..

setup cloud print on the computer

then install any of the cloud print applications on the market..

your pc connected to the printer must be on..

also remember most of the new printers like hp brother and some of the lex mark printers .. offer wireless printing from android/ ipad apps .

Good Luck i used cloud print before i bought this new printer I have always had great luck with brother..
[Acer Iconia A500] miltostammy:
i used this apk before 2 years with my archos and my motorola milestone with a wifi lexmark printer.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red 90:
I've been using my samsung GN for a month now and loving it. This is my first transition into the Android platform so please excuse my ignorance if my questions seem trivial.

I haven't unlocked or rooted my phone yet, but I'm itching to do so. I just had a few questions before I try it.

1. Unlocking the bootloader will wipe out my entire phone. I'm assuming this means it will similar to opening up a new phone. Since I've used this phone for a month now, I've put all my phone contacts in, including getting all the profile photos for my friends and contacts. Since I started a GMail account, can all this be recovered once gmail syncs back to the phone. I'm assuming this is for the calendar as well. Also is there a way to backup and restore anything else... ie txt messages, apps, settings, etc. I read somewhere something about titanium backup (can this be done the first time I unlock the bootloader?)

2. One of the main reasons why I want to unlock/root is to be able to put in some custom themes and icons. Am I correct to say this is only possible after I root the phone? Or can this be done on the stock unlocked form?

3. The other reason I want to do this is to see if there are any custom roms or kernels that can help with the UI interface to make it a bit more smooth and not as stuttery. (I know this is a debated discussion), however I came from the iphone and it is noticable and irritating to me (YMMV) Does anyone know of a custom kernel or ROM that will be able to improve on this?

Thank you for your help... I'm still somewhat hesitant to do the process. I'd just like to find out as much as I can before I try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
You can change icons and launcher themes by using a custom launcher such as ADW or Go Launcher (the two with the most themes) but this will only change the icons of your apps. If you want to get into custom colors and buttons and such, you will need to root.

Gmail will sync all of your contacts back, but the pictures will be low resolution (unless they are your friends on G+) to fix this, you can redo the pictures by hand or download an app called Haxsync for facebook sync which I've found works fairly well.

You can download "SMS backup and restore" to back up and restore your texts.

Market will have your paid apps saved, but write a list of your free apps as market will not save those.

Also your settings such as wifi networks will be remembered.

And yes, custom kernels and roms will help with smoothness, promise :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red 90:
Josh, thanks a lot for the advice, I'll look into the apps before I start to unlock this puppy!!!

[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
Hello, my name is Aaron. I see the positives and negatives in every situation.I got an android phone because I don't want to be restricted by apple. I have played with my phone one too many times and...this happened.

Accidentally updated my atrix 2 to 2.3.6. I then severely wanted root so I tried to flash back. I googled for fastboot tools and found one on this forum. When i tried to flash an img, it apparently did not work even though I choose this fastboot tool because it said it was for atrix 2 and had atrix 2 img's with it. Now, my phone is stuck in fastboot mode. I have rsd lite working on my old, crappy laptop. However the usb port isn't giving my phone enough power to even turn on.It only turns on when charging through the wall.I have the fastboot files. All I need is a way to get my phone to stay ON while plugged into my laptop. I will appreciate any help, no matter how good or bad the help is because it's better than nothing.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Everyone, I have been helping with this as much as I can thorough PM, but I think he has a low power USB port on the laptop he is using.

1) have you tried another usb cable that is not from Motorola?

Sometimes that helps in these odd situations.

2) Can you get ahold of or borrow a powered USB hub?

That might allow you get this up long enough to flash the fxz to get your phone back to stock.

P.S. he can't ask for help in the thread about the fastboot files, because he has less than 10 posts.

What do you guys think? any brainstorming would be greatly appreciated, and he can't ask for a warranty exchange, just don't go down that path.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
Jim, I am willing to buy one, but I would need to know how much they cost and where I could get them from E.X. Walmart. Could you link me to one?
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Do you have a close relative or friend that would let you use their computer? I would try that before buying a hub and it would also let you know if your laptop USB port is bad.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Here is a link for a powered usb hub. Now I am not 100% sure if this will do the trick, so I am hoping someone else has an idea, since I am not a windows guy, and I am guessing that your laptop is older and has lower powered usb connections.

A usb cable that is not moto branded:

[Motorola Atrix 2] dolph8886:
try connecting to the wall charger, power on if it doesn't go to fastboot automatically.

at this point hold both volume up+down and press power again, the screen will turn off

still holding the volume up+down press power and you should be presented with the options

Boot mode selection menu

vol up selects, vol down scrolls

Available boot modes:

Normal Powerup

Recovery

AP Fastboot

BP Tools

just press vol up on normal powerup

let the phone charge completely then use the fastboot files to restore but you will need to make some changes to the fastboot files to flash successfully
[Motorola Atrix 2] Semseddin:
Be sure to flash the stock rom with RSD Lite 5.6 and usb drivers 5.2, use windows 7 to flash the rom in ap fastboot mode. All will be fine.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
rsd lite will not install on my windows 7 computer , which I am using right now. Also, my phone will not turn off, nor charge.It only turns off when it is not charging. [UPDATE] Now it won't even turn on while connected to my windows 7 computer.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
You will have to disconnect it from the wall and pull the battery, then put the battery back in and connect the wall charger and do the following, your timing will be critical, you might have to unplug pull the battery and do it few times to get it right:
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
Jim I know you're not a windows guy but do you figure i can copy all of the rsdlite files from my sh*tty laptop to my flash drive and put them on my windows 7 computer and have it work because the installer doesn't work on this computer and my laptop is very slow.

P.S. I found it that it's not the laptop's usb. plugged it into this computer and it didn't turn on.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
Sorry it didn't load the above post.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
You might be able to zip up the RSD's installed directory under C:\Program Files for the RDS lite app and move it to your Windows 7 machine, but if there are any registry checks in the application it may fail when you run it, and it might have issues, since it does talk to the device manager, but it is worth a try, just make sure you also install the drivers for the phone as well, here is a link for those:

Try this for 32-bit:http://www.mediafire.com/?71c12qc4a1svqza

And this for 64-bit:http://www.mediafire.com/?ysphmaz131d3an9
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
These steps do not work. I do not get said options. I held the power volume up and volume down for 30 seconds and nothing happened. [EDIT] thanks for 32 bit driver maybe it will now charge on said laptop. Screw it, it turned itself off. This is unfix-able for me. I need to go back to ATT but my mom won't let me because she works for ATT.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
If your battery is completely dead you can still charge it but you will need a old USB cable for this to work. Take the old cable and cut one end off. Strip back the plastic and expose the red and black wires. And then on each black and red wire strip back the plastic to expose the metal wires. Take your battery out and tape the red exposed wires to the positive side of the battery and the black wire to the negative side of the battery. Then being careful not to pull off the tape and wires plug the good end of the USB into a good USB port and let it charge for 30 mins. This will give you enough power to boot up and flash. Had to do this personally once on my OG ATRIX
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
I am just a teenager, don't trust myself doing that. Don't wanna fry myself doing that. Do you know how I can at minimum get it to turn on when in the computer usb port. All that happens is the notification light turns white.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
If the battery is dead it won't turn on without getting a charge on the battery itself first. The only other way will be as posted earlier by Jim and having it plugged into a wall charger that I know of.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
When I plug it into a wall charger, it does not charge. It plainly only gives it enough power to stay on, it acts as if instead of a charger, it just just a connection directly to a power source that is necessary to stay connected to to work.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Im at work tonight so I'm limited as to what I can do but tomorrow I can walk you thru fabbing up a USB cable if you want me to. Its really rather easy and the USB ports don't put out enough power to hurt you. Trust me I know LoL. But like you said if you don't feel comfortable doing this then I totally understand.

If we can't get your battery some juice then the only other thing I can see is ordering a spare battery charger just for the battery itself.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aaronwatrix2:
I have decided to try to get a replacement at ATT, what should I tell them, my whole phone won't turn on?
